Chris McCausland has become the first celebrity to be eliminated from Strictly Come Dancing following Saturday night's Samba-thon, and the show's first blind contestant revealed his thoughts
Strictly Come Dancing contestant Chris McCausland has shared his honest thoughts on the Samba-thon, a twist that sparked criticism from viewers. The BBC show revived the Dance-a-thon format, where all celebrities perform the same dance simultaneously, for the first time in six years. However, viewers, including former contestant Vanessa Feltz, deemed the format 'unfair' to Chris, the show's first blind contestant.
'Not long after, I heard our names called as the first couple being asked to leave the floor. I can only imagine they had immediate concerns about their decision to let a blind man loose with his arms and legs flailing about the place. Well, either that or my Samba was just c***, one or the other, or possibly both.' Former Strictly contestant Vanessa had previously said the erratic nature of the Samba-thon left the comedian at a disadvantage.
